Belly Watch 5

I know there might be only a little change with these "Belly Watch" pictures, but here's a view of the nursery. This spring Chris and I painted the room green. He painted a giraffe and a turtle picture for above the crib, and he plans to make another painting using their names. There is a panda and a bunny in the boxes on the side wall. These are both from our childhood. The nursery is almost complete, but it is ready for its pint-sized occupants!

Today was another doctor visit. I went over our birth plan with the doc, and she said it looked good and they could accommodate what we had listed (except for Chris getting to walk around in a doctor's coat and talk to people like the doctor in "House"). She also said I was almost a centimeter dialated, which is slightly more that last week. The majority of the appointment was spent on the baby monitors. With two of them, it takes twice as long. Their little hearts were monitored and were going strong. They also monitor for contractions, and they said I had one in the hour I was monitored. I didn't feel it though- wouldn't that be nice if that were the case for all the ones to come!

The Belly Watch 3

They're on the move! The McGraw boys have been kickin' and twitchin' up a storm. I've been enjoying the new activity and wonder what these next three months have in store for us. I've been feeling good since the last post, but sleeping through the night has been my new challenge. Chris and I have been on spring break from teaching this past week and had the chance to paint the nursery. It's a cute green color and pictures of the finished product will be coming. Two more weeks til the next doctor visit! Keep the four of us in your thoughts and prayers!

The Belly Watch 2

It's been about 20 weeks, so we are over the half way mark! The babies are getting bigger (6-7 inches) and I'm starting to feel flutters! We are excited for our doctor appointment next week. Hopefully, we will find out the genders! We will be sure to post again after the visit. Keep us in your prayers!

The Belly Watch

15 weeks have flown by! I have been feeling good so far, aside from fatigue. I feel like I'm now at that stage that people look at me and think...."hmmmm is that a beer gut or is Katie pregnant?" It's been a fun time tracking the babies' growth and their development. Can you believe they already have all their organs and are even growing finger nails and a hairline! (Sources say they are even urinating, but that kind of weirds me out.) They are still very tiny- just 3-4 inches! We can't wait to see pics of them again next week. We will let you know how that goes. Please keep the four of us in your prayers!
